Retreat with rustic cabin, picnic shed and ponds

Rustic, private retreat with 1,000 square foot solar powered off grid cabin, 2 ponds (fish stocked), and picnic shed, fire pit and charcoal grilling area on 75 acres with hiking areas. The cabin is furnished with antiques and has a true historic flair. There is a propane range, woodstove, propane gas log heater and beautiful stone wood burning fireplace. Firewood is provided. There is a gas grill at the cabin. The cabin has an open floor plan with a tin roof. The cabin has hot and cold running water inside. There is an enclosed shower/sink room with hot water adjacent to the cabin. A few steps from the cabin there is a pit toilet. There is no indoor toilet. There is no air conditioning. There is no refrigerator, so you need to bring a cooler and ice. The amount of solar power is subject to the amount of sunshine we get and how leafed out the trees are. We provide oil, salt, pepper, sugar and coffee filters. Bring your coffee of choice. We have a pour over drip coffee carafe and a percolator. Falling acorns may be loud on the tin roof in the fall. We do have white noise machines by each bed. This property is not appropriate for small children.
